Kura The Whisky Rum Cask Pure Malt

Finished in Japanese Rum Barrels

Made in the southernmost region of Japan, this whisky is the result of careful aging in American White Oak. Finished in Japanese rum casks, its remarkable sweet aroma is accompanied by its distinctive mellow taste.

Kura The Whisky Pure Malt is a Japanese whisky from Okinawa's Helios Distillery. It blends peated and unpeated malts, aged in American oak and finished in rum casks, resulting in a unique, balanced profile. The nose reveals toasted oak with green apple and mango chutney, while the palate offers orange, lemon, menthol, and subtle smokiness. The finish lingers with burnt sugar, stewed pears, and clove undertones, making it a smooth and complex whisky

Kura Pure Malt is one of the more interesting Japanese whiskies out there. Coming from one of - if not the - southernmost distillery in Japan (way down in Okinawa!), Kura brings a different terroir from the Japanese mainland/main islands.
